What a city! Considered the highest city in the world with altitude 4 060 m.a.s.l. and back in 16th century the richest city of America.
We have arrived on the terminal from where it was rather hike up the hill to our hostel. If O would have known how far it is, we would have taken a taxi.
It took us while to find the place as the websites had a wrong address. The receptionist didn't have a clue about our booking but thankfully had free room and it worked out even cheaper then we originally calculated.
